Publisher's summary

We have been shockingly bad at using our Bibles and our brains when it comes to conservation and the environment. Unhinged environmentalism is not the answer, but neither are ignorance and apathy. It’s time for something different.

Christian responsibility for the natural world goes back to the very beginning, when God commanded us to “fill the earth and subdue it”. This dominion mandate is an authoritative alternative to both environmental activists and to those who think “conservation” is a word progressives made up.

So, what does “dominion” mean for us, living in a world of constant reports about impending global meltdown; of oils spills, pollution, and strip-mining; of extinction threats both real and imagined? A Different Shade of Green contains a compelling Christian approach to biodiversity conservation and other environmental issues, offering solutions and correcting errors while teaching us how to give thanks for and rule over all of creation.

A thoughtful book

The narration is amateurish at times, but it’s not hugely distracting. In fact in a strange way it makes listening more enjoyable, because you can better sense the author’s personality. There are a few editing errors here and there, but nothing egregious.

I’m not sure everyone will concur with Dr. Gordon’s theological interpretation. Overall, I personally agree with most of what he’s saying. What I like most about this book is that the author seems to be a very thoughtful, pleasant, and sincere man who cares deeply for both God and nature. You can tell that he’s thought about his subject over an entire lifetime, and that he has drawn his conclusions from both science and a careful reading of scripture. One never gets the sense that he is judgmental or trying to indoctrinate. Rather, this is a book of gentle persuasion,

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
